The $130 million church campus officially opened for Easter Sunday worship on March 31, 2013.

Also in 2010, Jeffress referred to Roman Catholicism as a "Satanic" result of "Babylonian mystery religion".

10Then Simon Peter drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus. 11“Put your sword back in its sheath!” Jesus said to Peter. “Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given Me?”

What's this guy's problem with Unitarians, anyway? I guess the Unitarians don't donate any money to this guy's church so he feels it's OK to trash them on national TV.

This crap about the police being ministers of God is just ridiculous!
